1. Flexibility and mobility are essential not only to reduce the risk of injuries but to

generally feel better. Living a nine to five desk life can be demanding on health and

wellness. Here is how you can keep the most common problems at bay.

2. Even if you are not exercising you need to make sure that you maintain correct

posture and sit at your desk in the right way. It is important that your chair is placed

correctly and your legs are not left hanging. Proper alignment ensures that your neck

and back are not strained. Exercises and abdominal crunches two to three times a week

can strengthen the core. It will help take the pressure off your back and will make it

easier to maintain good posture. Chairs with a back that support your upper back are

preferable for those who work long hours in front of screens.

3. Constant typing, writing reports, and answering e-mails can exert your wrists leading

to long-term damage. The frequency of your use and how you position your wrists at

your keyboard can be a reason. The telltale signs of exertion would be a tingling

sensation or numbness. One should not ignore initial signs. Make sure that you rest

your wrist at regular intervals. To relieve tension quickly fold your hands in a NAMASTE

in front of your chest with elbows moving out and lower your hands till you feel a good

stretch in your wrists. Also rotating your fists inside and outside provides much relief to

strained wrists.

4. Since those who work on desks spend a lot of time looking at a computer screen,

they are at a risk of straining their eyes. This may also lead to dry eyes and fatigue.

Poor eyesight is the result of continued and improper exposure to screens. Keeping the

computer screen at an optimal distance helps a lot in minimizing strain to eyes. The

screen shouldn’t be too close or too far. To ease eye strain use good lighting and make

it a point to look at a distance away from your screen every twenty to thirty minutes.
